Investments in initial public offerings ("IPOs") had a favorable impact on Davis Opportunity Fund's performance in 1999 and 2000. This was a time when the IPO market was very active. No assurance can be given that Davis Opportunity Fund will continue to invest in IPOs to the same extent in the future or that such investments would be profitable.

All total return figures include reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions. Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares after seven years. However, since the inception date for Class A shares is 12/1/94, Class B shares could not be converted prior to that date. Therefore, the performance for the life period includes Class B share performance until 12/1/94, and Class A share performance thereafter. Class B shares' performance for the periods exceeding seven years includes the first seven years of Class B share performance and Class A share performance thereafter. Total returns for periods of less than one full year for classes of shares are cumulative total returns, which are not annualized.

Some important risks of an investment in the Funds are: market risk: the market value of shares of common stock can change rapidly and unpredictably; company risk: the market value of a common stock varies with the success or failure of the company issuing the stock; financial services risk: investing a significant portion of assets in the financial services sector may cause a fund to be more volatile; foreign country risk: companies operating, incorporated or principally traded in foreign countries may have more fluctuation as foreign economies may not be as strong or diversified, foreign political systems may not be as stable and foreign financial reporting standards may not be as rigorous as they are in the United States; small- and medium-capitalization risk: small- and medium-capitalization companies' share prices tend to fluctuate more often as they tend to have limited product lines, markets and financial resources, and their securities may trade less frequently and in more limited volume than those of larger companies; currency risk: the change in value of a foreign currency against the U.S. dollar will result in a change in the U.S. dollar value of securities denominated in that foreign currency. A Fund may, but generally does not, hedge its currency risk; emerging market risk: a Fund may invest in emerging or developing markets whose securities may be more difficult to sell at an acceptable price and their prices may be more volatile than securities of issuers in more developed markets. In unusual situations it may not be possible to repatriate sales proceeds in a timely fashion. These investments may be very speculative; concentrated real estate portfolio risk and focused portfolio risk: Davis Real Estate Fund primarily invests in real estate securities, and it may be subject to greater risks than a fund that does not concentrate its investments in a particular sector.

Shares of the Davis Funds are not deposits or obligations of any bank, are not guaranteed by any bank, are not insured by the FDIC or any other agency, and involve investment risks, including possible loss of the principal amount invested.
